I got a burn wounds from a hot oil. How to get rid of scars and prevent keloid formation? How soon can I expect it to be gone?

i got scalded by hot oil 2 months ago on both my lower and upper extremities, but mostly on my legs, i got consultation from a surgeon, got debribement 8 times, and my plastic surgeon recommended that i just apply pressure using a elastic bandage and petroleum jelly for hydration, nothing else. but im getting worried what if the scars remain? what do you suggest i do? more i mean? im asking a second opinion. or is what my doctor said enough? thanks

Scar therapy

Although the results of
scar therapy vary from person to person and scar to scar, the results are
considered permanent.

Not infrequently
potential patients avoid surgery because fear of an unsightly scar. To remedy
this, I now utilize and formulate compounded topical creams to treat, relieve
and minimize scars for each of my patients:

• new scars

• old scars

• surgical scars

• keloid scars

• stretch marks

• hypertrophic scars

• hyperpigmented (dark)
scars

• various acne scars,
and more...

These scar removal creams
contain prescription strength medications each individually known to reduce
and/or reverse the scarring process but never before compounded together into
one high potency formulation. These medications are added to a base of
anhydrous silicone (the most common ingredient in everyday topical scar
therapy) and Pracaxi oil, found in the Amazon rainforest and known for its
anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. Many
health insurance plans actually cover the cost of the creams and they can be
delivered directly to the patients door step. In other words, no need for
multiple trips to the doctor for expensive and painful laser treatments, or wasted
money on minimally effective over-the-counter topical scar therapy gels or
silicone sheets that are unsightly and/or fail to stay on. Instead, with just
two applications a day my patients now perform scar therapy in the comfort of
their own home. Glad to help.
